At such time as the provisions of the registration rights agreement filed as an exhibit to the registration statement relating to the Company’s initial public offering may be exercised, the exercise and procedural provisions of such agreement, rather than the provisions of Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 hereof, shall govern the Registrable Securities with respect to Piggy-Back Registrations.
